My sister and I shared a typical sisterly relationship: we couldn’t stand each other．Or to be honest she couldn’t stand me．I took her as a hero．My clothes mysteriously looked like hers and even my words tended to copy those I heard from her．Any sort of talk we had usually became a fighting and try as I might my sister had an extra six years worth of rude vocabulary．

After a while I stopped trying to impress her and learned to be totally indifferent（冷漠的）；we soon fell into a sad pattern — I avoided her she paid no attention to me and deep inside it hurt．She was only a sister in name．I truly believed that we would forever be apart two housemates without conversation two strangers without warmth．

I still remember the day I learned to ride a bike．I had received the bike that Christmas which was great until I realized I had no idea how to ride it．My mom had long since abandoned any attempt to teach me; I had proved to be a frustrating student．I had to learn by myself a little bit each day but unsuccessfully．On that day I was so disappointed that I threw my bike aside and began to cry I guess that was what caused my sister to come outside．At first I was nervous as I thought she would begin to laugh at me．She did not．She gently picked my bike up．That was the beginning．She fearlessly held my hand while the tears dried on my cheeks．She never once let me fall．And for three hours — three wonderful hours — we learned to ride my bike．No shouting．No fighting．No arguing．

That day I learned that my sister was human — how else could she have been my teacher? It was a life-changing experience．We still occasionally have our quarrels but since that day it’s been easier to get along because we have an unspoken respect for each other．
